Chemical Structure

5-beta-Cholane CAS 80373-86-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-beta-Cholane is closely related to an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

5-beta-Cholane (CAS 80373-86-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C24H42 and a molecular weight of 330.59 g/mol.

Owing to an aromatic ring system, 5-beta-Cholane is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 330.59 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 5-beta-Cholane under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
